Receiving Assistance

National coastal park managers may obtain direct support from the Coastal Geology group by submitting a written application or phone-in request. If assistance cannot be provided, the Coastal Geology group will find outside assistance and funding possibilities. The Coastal Geology group has provided assistance to numerous parks concerning a variety of coastal management issues. Recent projects include:

Restoring the Mississippi barrier islands in Gulf Islands National Seashore from damages caused by dredging of navigation channels (project website).

Developing a shoreline management plan at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore.
